So basically your argument is they shouldn't have fell for it?
I agree with the 1st part but the same could be said for Native americans, indians and the chinese ...

LOL. Stop your bullshyt. It was widespread and it was carried out by your bullshyt Chiefs . Clearly you never read the letter from the ManiKongo to the King of Portugal.
That was nikkas stealing nikkas.
Cause if it was that simple to not fall for the con and be a leader, than nobody would have been colonized at all by cacs. The same strategy was used in multiple continents
YepHe still is over simplifying the role africans played in the slave trade. It's kinda insulting to the tribes and kingdoms who actively resisted.
It's a lot more nuanced than how he is putting it
that seem's like Europeans interfering with African politics to me and playing people against each other while benefiting from both sidesLOL. Stop your bullshyt. It was widespread and it was carried out by your bullshyt Chiefs . Clearly you never read the letter from the ManiKongo to the King of Portugal.

Can you show us Europeans putting guns to these African leaders heads and forcing them to sell the slaves? The only examples we see of this is really in modern day Angola with the Portuguese. The bolded I am not sure what you are getting at because the Atlantic slave trade was partially a trade. The colonization of Africa was a conquest after Europeans reached industrialization. So they wouldn't be able to say "no."
Like I said all we can do is learn and not allow this to happen again. While praising the West Africans who DID resist like @Samori Toure mentioned. Denying the role SOME West Africans played in selling human capital is just living in fantasy world. Of course we should not cast blame on MODERN West Africans who had nothing to do with it. So again not sure what to argue? These leaders weren't STUPID they were able to create powerful kingdoms i.e Oyo, Ashanti, Dahomey, etc.
Other people figured it out too, but a lot of them just didn't care. Slave trading then was like gang banging drug dealing is now. A lot of nikkas knew that it was wrong and that it is hurting people, but they didn't care.

no you stupid motherfukker you clearly havent read Nzingas letters which came AFTER she realised the europeans were doing cattle slavery. check the dates bytch
Anna Nzinga Facts
she was literally trying to stop the jaga from enslaving. and even enlightened the dutch to assist (brilliant tactic) divide and conquer just like euros did in the americas. but c00ns and faux miliants were against it,
im tired of this cac narrative, because with simple google and research ( i didnt quote it for a reason) I want you on your own to say what she felt about their version of slavery and them using jaga to capture and take slaves, and how they denied her request, bypassed her, and used cannons to TAKE SLAVES. fukk your fukking cac arse. you dont know shyt. most of the slaves came from angola. go there and ask. fukk if you went to africa, its a continent, go to where the source was and ask them. fukk your google fingers.
You are going to stop trying peddle bullshyt around here, because we know the prices muddafugga. It was not just the Jaga people capturing slaves around Kongo and Angola. I don't know why you are pushing that bullshyt narrative, but if it helps your ass to sleep at night then go ahead muddafugga.
What I mean is that no country can be colonized without first being destabilized. Tons of black scholars have explained the mental conditioning that being colonized did to Africans and their leaders. they were trying to be damn Europeans themselves during the height of the slave trade and thus making it a whole hell of a lot easier feat to subjugate people. It happened in india, NA and other asian countries
I agree with what ur saying
He might have been TBHCacs also said Shaka Zulu was gay..
Then tribes in SA been on that man love shyt
This is true and I agree. All I'm saying is that West Africans both ENGAGED IN and RESISTED the slave trade. And that we shouldn't deny either.
right because out of 20k tribe. 40 did the selling. thats your narrative now. 'africans did this'
sounds like cac logic to me.
well cac. 0.5 of your people are racist, so to me, all of yall are. now how does that work?

nah....European didn't put a gun to the Bambaras, Mandingos, Yuruba, Fula, Wolof people head and force them to sell opposing tribes' slaves. Them folks were going at war so in their point of view they didn't care if they got goods and monetary in exchange for opposing tribal soldiers. You weaken the opposition and get some trinkets. Although, Igbos as far as I know were the only ones in West Africa selling their own
